The Power of Concentration

by William Walker Atkinson

About 2 h 40 min of reading21 chapters

The Power of Concentration is a self-help course published under the name Theron Q. Dumont, one of the pen names of the American New Thought writer William Walker Atkinson. In eighteen lessons, it teaches that focused attention is the key to success in business, health and character. Atkinson explains how to train the will, overcome bad habits, gain poise and courage, remember what one learns and direct one's thoughts toward wealth and achievement, with practical exercises for steadying the mind and the body. The tone is direct and encouraging, typical of the success literature of the early twentieth century, and the advice remains approachable. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
